The voice of the Pillsbury Doughboy was Paul Frees, a "voice over" actor. I know because I created the Pillsbury Doughboy while working for the Leo Burnett advertising agency. I auditioned Paul with many other actors and Paul got the job. Paul died several years ago. The second voice of the Pillsbury Doughboy was Jobe Cerny, a Chicago actor. I did not cast him nor do I know if he still is the voice but I believe he is. My name is Rudy Perz.
The Pillsbury Dough Boy is the mascot of the Pillsbury Company. His proper name is Poppin' Fresh. He started appearing in Pillsbury commercials in 1965.

The Pillsbury doughman, or Pillsbury Doughboy as he is more widely known, actually does have a name - Poppin' Fresh! Poppin' Fresh is the mascot of the Pillsbury company, and first made his debut in commercials in 1965. No matter what yummy baked good he is promoted, Poppin' Fresh ended every commercial by rubbing his tummy and giggling after a human finger pokes him.
